Hodgman's entire deal is being a snooty blowhard with a heart of gold, it might not be for everyone, and that's fine. Blame Travis for Travis!

"Weird Stuff That Our Dad Texts Us" is my favorite semi-regular MBMBAM bit.

Hello all. I made a feedback thread for RGD. Since this sub might be full of people who live in their bookmarks, I am linking it in here too. Come tell me about RGD.

I download and listen to podcasts in batches so for the last 5 or so The Adventure Zones, Justin has been telling me that next week there won't be a TAZ episode. I appreciate that he also doesn't read an ad during this. I can't believe how good Steeplechase is.

Timely joke about the Star Wars hotel to start off this week's TAZ.

On besties Griffin said he can’t wait to to do a new monster factory with street fighter 6. So hopefully that doesn’t take months to come out.

I'm all for these guys getting a promotion! Edit: Wait.... Dark Night helps criminals and Funny Guy is a criminal. Dark Night helped the criminal by being the hero who rescued Denton so Funny Guy could get a gig at Steeplechase... Wow the layers. Just two, but still... Edit 2 didn't read before posting, doh RandomPauI fucked around with this message at 10:07 on Jun 16, 2023 |

I’ve said it before but I feel compelled to say it again; the Poppy’s Place “music” is so goddamn grating and miserable. I hate every single downtime because of this music. It’s beyond irritating. Also I think Travis has completely forgotten that he’s playing a character in an RPG. What happened to Beef? He’s just Travis now. I was digging Steeplechase but it’s feeling more and more low-effort and unfocused lately.

It does seem like there’s plenty of game mechanics - heat, factions in general - that Justin isn’t engaging with (on microphone, anyway). It would probably help both him and the players with acting/reacting rather than kind of drifting along.

I'm a bit surprised they haven't leveled up their faction or whatever but it's not bothering me. Also the music is good, sorry about ur brain.

But I dunno I like Steeplechase, genuinely, but I also can't pretend to give a gently caress about what happens in it at all. Which now that I think about it is totally on brand for a Justin campaign. He doesn't give a gently caress either.

They're not doing a Let's Play of a TTRPG, they're doing a narrative podcast that uses a TTRPG as a framework. Blades seems to work much better for their purposes than, say, 5e. They ignored 75% of 5e, too.

imo the less mechanics the better, aside from narrative dice rolls

Blades seems to work much better for their purposes than, say, 5e. They ignored 75% of 5e, too. Sure. I haven’t played Blades in the Dark but I have messed around with Scum and Villainy, and it seems like there are game mechanics to help better get to the action or introduce complications that make for good radio. Most of the best MBMBaM content starts with a yahoo or email to the brothers. Let the game do more of the premise heavy lifting. The church sequence of the most recent episode was pretty funny, the episode or two where the group was fumbling around in the non-downtime/non-heist freeform investigation of a frame job was much weaker.

Whenever there's a TAZ arc where the cast has to solve an open-ended mystery it's usually really weak and you get multiple episodes of them chasing their tails. In fairness it's really hard both to run and to interestingly play out detective stories in a tabletop game.

games that are good, like blades, actually use their mechanics to create fun roleplaying situations, instead of needing to be ignored to do that like d&d. the "you have to ignore most of the rules to have fun" is something you gotta unlearn
